Hepatitis B Vaccine and Hair Loss?
I just started the Hep B vaccine and am experiencing hair loss at 54. Will it grow back?? I’m very concerned because of my age.
All health care workers receive hepatitis B vaccine, yet health care workers are not at any increased risk for hair loss. What you may be experiencing may be coincidental or very rare.
I did find this quote from the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases: “There have been rare reports of hair loss after hepatitis B vaccination, with the majority of individuals regrowing their hair (Wise, 1997). Studies are in progress to better quantify the possible slight risk of hair loss.”
I wouldn’t be so sure that hair loss is not caused by the hep b vaccine. In my case i believe it most certainly triggered massive telogen effluvium. I am a health worker and know of many other health workers (enough that it is not coincidental) who have had routine vaccines due to the nature of our clinical work and who have all experienced a large increase in shedding in the days weeks and months following vaccination. I really don’t see how this is disregarded by so many, when you look at the ingredients in common vaccines (believe me it’s scary) you can see why so many people have reported hair loss. Hair is a barometer of health, many medications cause hair loss though various mechanisms most likely in telogen effluvium by shocking the hair follicle into a resting stage that precedes hair fall. Surely being injected with known toxins and heavy metals such as mercury, aluminium, animal tissues, genetically modified hormones, chemicals and preservatives is enough to cause a shock to the system as a whole not just hair?! I for one will never consent to another vaccine again
